The sequential benchmark was done in order to compare the response
time of REST and GraphQL. The test was done on two types of
sample.
The few sample contains :
- 10 users - 84 products - 79 orders
The lotof sample contains :
- 100’000 users - 84 products - 300204 orders
We simulate a user doing n requests where n = {1,10,100,1000,10000}
on three functions:
- getUsers (only user-microservice is involved).
- createProduct (only product-microservice is involved).
- userThatBoughtProduct (user, product and order microservices are
involved).
